He currently oversees the Arizona reservation territories of the Hopi and Navajo Indians. Although he has to walk a fine line between the Indians and the Anglos, his job usually runs very smoothly. However, when a Navajo Indian is found brutally murdered on Hopi Land, Chee's life gets turned upside down.
